TL;DR, I don't think this a valid issue. To fix, use up-to-data `cabal- install`.
@phadej, thank you for a very informative answer. The oldest `GHC` version currently supported by Agda is `7.10.*`. If I understand correctly, the proposed fixes require at least `Cabal >= 1.24`. Is there a fix which also work with the `Cabal` version (i.e. `Cabal 1.22.*`) shipped with `GHC 7.10.3`? -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/14775#comment:3 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
